Al-Ahly be praised! Might just be right - Aluko unknown re injury; Sagbo unknown quantity; Graham too. But - if true - won't we have to buy Graham or Livers first?
Don't think international loans count in that respect. Should be able to have Graham, Livermore and Gedo on loan.
Agreed, took him but moments to get on the score sheet when he came on for the first time. Minutes played to goal ratio was excellent, started to falter after his injury. Always thought he would end up here again. Could not see the point of keeping him in Hull to tend to his injury. Had to be another reason? On the other hand why leave it so late? Hoping for someone better that has not materialized?
I get a whiff of the Allams' hand in this one. Brucie was rumoured to not be over-impressed with him. "Well, Steve, the wallet is a little bare, but you could always loan Gedo. I think we could cover that."
Google doesn't seem able to translate Gedo's tweet, it comes out as: "Galle Show Circulating of Hull City ... Awaited response to the Commission on the ball and the coaching staff wish to respond to approve .."
I don't mind Gedo. But surely we would have signed him before now if Bruce rated him? I know he's been injured but it wasn't a long term injury.
I'd be happy with this signing! Knows where the net is, he's fast and direct... What we're looking for isn't it?
No real negatives if we are not paying a fee its not the end of the world, and he doesn't cover any of the loan spots. I don't think he score many but he's a poacher and he will do alright for us, but i don't think he will end our goal scoring problems.
Al Ahly Manager refuse to let Gedo go but he is trying to convince him he really want to leave we will see
yes and while they're at it, clarify the situation whether u21 loanees count? (Nick Powell etc - although he is supposed to be off to Wigan)
Not the answer, unproven at this level like Sagbo. All these names we are linked with are no better than we have, there is only Odemwingie that is proven at this level, Rhodes whilst unproven is arguably better. The rest Gedo, Rodallega even cole are not prolific/regular scorers at this level, people just seem to think we need a striker, we only need one thats better than we have.
